From the Radiolab podcast: Birds do it, bees do it, yet science still can't answer the basic question - why do we sleep?
We had a question back in 2007, about a thing every creature on the planet does - from giant humpback whales to teeny fruit flies. Why do we all sleep? What does it do for us, and what happens when we go without? We take a peek at iguanas sleeping with one eye open, get in bed with a pair of sleep-deprived new parents, and eavesdrop on the uneasy dreams of rats.
